# Netmera user guide
### Create custom analytics dashboards with Insights
Teams ask different questions of the same data. A growth team may monitor installs, a campaign team may monitor push views, and an executive may want a single number that shows whether the week performed well. Predefined reports answer some of these questions, but they do not cover every use case.
[Insights](/netmera-user-guide/reports-and-analytics/analytics/insights.md) provides a custom analytics workspace inside Netmera.
Insights lets each team turn its own events into dashboards: define what to measure, choose how to display it, and keep the results on a board that the team can monitor.
### Build dashboards from your events
Insight Boards is a custom dashboard builder powered by your event data.
It works with the events your app already sends to Netmera, including standard and custom events. Select an event, choose how to count it, and display the result as a chart, number, or table on a board. You are not limited to predefined templates.
With Insight Boards, you can:
* build dashboards or views from your own events
* measure totals or unique users, depending on the question
* compare various event metrics on a single chart
* switch between line, bar, pie, number, and table views
* use different date ranges on the same board, side by side
* monitor a card as it refreshes during a campaign or release
* reuse one insight across multiple boards
* monitor your events in action
### Build and view analytics from your event data
When accessing data requires a request to another team or waiting for the next report, some questions may remain unanswered. Insight Boards lets the person with the question build the view, run it, and see the result in seconds, using the required level of detail and display format.
Each card has its own date range, chart type, and refresh schedule, so a single board can support different monitoring needs at the same time.
### How Insight Boards works
Netmera collects event data for every app, but teams may need to analyze that data in different ways.
Insight Boards follows a simple model: **define once, present anywhere**. An insight is a saved query that belongs to your app rather than to a specific page. Boards reference the insight and display it in the selected format. When the insight is updated, the boards that use it stay in sync.
### Get started
Insight Boards is available from the main menu of the Netmera Panel. Create a board, add an insight, and run it. The complete process takes about ten minutes.
The guide below follows this workflow:
* Key Concepts to understand boards, insights, and metrics
* Creating a Board and Adding Insights for the first steps
* Building an Insight for the full builder walkthrough
* Chart Types and Display Settings to configure the available views
* Managing Insights on a Board for everyday board management
### Build dashboards from your own data
Reports are predefined around specific questions. Insight Boards lets you define the questions and the views you need.
Create a board, add an insight, and keep the result available for ongoing monitoring.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:
```
GET https://user.netmera.com/netmera-user-guide/netmera-user-guide.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
